John McCririck on age discrimination case.

Racing pundit John McCririck, who has lost his age discrimination case against Channel 4 for his dismissal from his role on Channel 4 Racing, said he feels that he "let so many people down".

A tribunal ruled against him and said that his persona and views on Channel 4 racing were β€œclearly unpalatable to a wider potential audience".

The 73-year-old says his wife Jenny McCririck, who he calls The Booby, has been β€œso stressed” and the ruling has β€œhit her very hard”.

β€œI let my wife The Booby down, she was always worried about this and counselled me not to go ahead, my legal team I let down," he said.
